r - Q: initialization of Genetic Algorithm -


i have function big search space, wanted use genetic algorithms close optimum, , use other method such bfgs find optimal point. i'm using r that.

the problem function has 12 parameters , invalid @ points. when give maximum , minimum parameter values ga , tries generate population, whole population formed nans (and therefore, algorithm not able continue).

since don't know gas, i'm struggling find solution problem. thing thought choosing big population size (something 10e5), find valid values start. that's not solution though, being able initialize algorithm normal-sized population better.

do have suggestions? gas i'm missing?

thank you

if of parameter space invalid, ga may not best approach. risk cross algorithms, may invalid parameter combination.

another way of thinking ga search algorithm. works best when tries ends little bit better or worse started from; if tries invalid there isn't guiding search.

my suggestion try parametrize problem differently, more points valid (though perhaps low-fitness). didn't describe function it's hard more specific, it's possible accept "invalid" input , quantify how far "valid" is. that's can run search on.

c++ - Difference between pre and post decrement in recursive function argument -

i have following sample code used pre-decrement void function(int c) { if(c == 0) { return; } else { cout << "dp" << c << endl; function(--c); cout << c << endl; return; } } this function give output input 4 : dp3 dp2 dp1 dp0 0 1 2 3 but when use post decrement void function(int c) { if(c == 0) { return; } else { cout << "dp" << c << endl; function(c--); cout << c << endl; return; } } output goes in infinite loop dp4 can explain me in detail why happens ? this happens because function(c--) called same value of c , when finishes c decremented. recursively called, hence called same value no chance of return , hit stack overflow error. assume this, int x = 1, y = 0; y = x++ result y == 1 , x == 2. if y = ++x , bot x , y 2.

php - Nothing but 'run(); ' when browsing to my local project, how do I fix this? -

i added new project. made mistake in projectname.conf file in sites-available apache2, led me reinstalling apache2. after reinstalling , re-enabling projects on every page of every project .. <body> run(); </body> .. i've run composer update, restarted service, restarted pc, checked config files, tried disabling new project. there nothing in error log, , access.log: 127.0.0.1 - - [15/may/2015:01:40:47 +0200] "get / http/1.1" 304 181 "-" "mozilla/5.0 (x11; ubuntu; linux x86_64; rv:38.0) gecko/20100101 firefox/38.0" maybe i'm forgetting apache2 reinstall? don't think did different last time installed it. looks haven't setup php correctly. take @ this great guide , maybe you're forgetting link php config apache2.
